I have been working as a Functional Skills and Business Admin Trainer for the past two years at DH Associates, where I have been responsible for supporting the timely achievement of apprenticeships and managing a caseload of about 40 learners. I have also been providing group and one-to-one tutoring/mentoring, as well as training, reviewing, monitoring, and assessing them. My experience in assessing, planning, and delivering functional skills English and maths to learners on an individual or group basis according to their learning needs and requirements has allowed me to develop strong skills in adapting to different learning styles and abilities.
